Independence Day

Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog

A very happy 4th of July to those in the 

US who celebrate!

Today I am wearing an outfit that is perfect

 for the summer holiday weekend,

in patriotic red, white and blue

Well, perfect so long as there is nothing

 really sloppy is on the menu

 Then I would suggest a very large napkin

 for your lap while eating!

Gingham is a print that loudly proclaims it is summer, 

so I chose this royal blue and white oversize check blouse

 worn over a white camisole top for the day 

I paired it with my white inverted pleat denim skirt

You might recognize the blouse

I have worn it on the blog before,

in a post from May last year, titled "Bright Blue in the Mix"

 That wear was over a royal blue flared dress

Bright blue is always in my mix, whether it is trending or not!

The skirt might look familiar too,

as I wore it on the blog in one of my outfits just last week

It is by Burberry and is a classic that has been in

my wardrobe for quite a few years

I always look forward to seeing it

 when I switch from my winter to summer clothes,

I never get tired of it, it can be worn so many ways

This little bag seems to be made for a patriotic summer holiday, as the flap is star studded

 and the channel quilting is in a striped pattern

 

Must add some red 🙂 so for jewelry,I wore my vintage 1950s

 red cuff bracelet and red enamel anchor pieces

A necklace and post stud earrings

It looks like they could be a set,

 but they were brought a year apart

Playful shoes for a fun day-

  wearing my white lace wedge sneakers

Roger's in the house!

 Wearing a red polo shirt and classic dark wash Levi's, 

 black sneakers with red laces

Independence Day 2019-

a little all American tie-dye and denim!

Some picnic fruit from the farmer's market-

fresh local produce is one of the best things about summer!

Red spider mum-looks like floral fireworks!

Hope everyone has a great holiday,

and those in other countries, a great week ahead!
